Marriage to the Enemy
The Part 52
Gunadi died one week ago. Renata still mourns the departure of his father. His eyes were puffy, his face also looked pale and tyrannical.
Rena's appearance looks very chaotic. Not wanting to eat and leave the room, just curled up in bed as if there was no more passion for life. Ricky patiently takes care of his depressed wife.
"Darling, eat yes. Pity debay if you don't eat. No nutrients are absorbed for its growth" Ricky persuaded by hand to hold a bowl of Rena's favorite chicken porridge during pregnancy.
"Honey, tomorrow's four-month debay event in the womb. You must be healthy, remember birth, soul mate, fortune and death are the secrets of God. If God has willed, we can only accept all this patiently and sincerely" Ricky said, reminding his wife to sincerely let go of the father's departure.
"What your husband said is true. You look at those out there, look at those buskers on the side of the road. Not only did they lose their parents, they also lost their future."
"You just lost a parent, there are still us people who love you. There is still a future that you can achieve with the treasures of your parents. You should be grateful, you don't need to be like them, beggars in the streets .... "
"Quite Auntie! Auntie doesn't know what it's like to lose ...."
"Tante has felt that way long before you, Rena. Even Auntie knows what it's like to lose a husband. Ye? You're nothing compared to Auntie. So, never feel only you are the most sad and suffering here. Papa you are my brother, I consider him my own parent. Now that he's been taken by the Owner, I can only give." Soraya let out all her sadness, to the point that Ricky cried hearing her.
Ricky feels more and more guilty about his former stepmother. He used to hate Aunt Soraya so much and his father, he felt God was unfair to him. Now that he knew the truth, he felt very sorry for Aunt Soraya.
"Reren is sad, Aunt Sora is sad, Ricko and I are sad. Even the kids here are sad. But we know, if we continue to lament the departure of papa will only increase the burden of papa in the afterlife. Don't you love papa, hmm?" some Ricky about the sadness that is being felt by all residents of the big house.
Hearing her husband and aunt trying to open her mind, Rena finally woke up and walked to the bathroom. After cleaning up, Rena sat on the edge of the bed near the nightstand. He picked up a bowl of chicken porridge and started eating it slowly.
Ricky and Aunt Soraya who were initially confused to see Rena's behavior, finally can smile. They are happy because Rena is no longer torturing herself with children in the womb. Ricky and Aunt Soraya looked at each other and smiled.
Aunt Soraya leaves Rena's room, to find Ricko whom she had neglected since morning. It turned out that the teenager was studying in the room, regardless of the presence of the mother.
Soraya approached the child and hugged him from behind.
"Mommy why? Kangen papi, huh?" guess Ricko.
"No. Mami is feeling grateful to still be given the opportunity with her daughter. I hope you don't blame Mami for asking to part with your papi," Soraya said, she's actually afraid that Ricko might someday hate her for separating the child from her father.
"Ricko never blamed Mami or papi. Mami remember no? It taught Ricko to respect the parents' decision" Ricko said, taking a deep breath and throwing it away violently.
"What we live is a provision that God has outlined for us to live. Is that right, Mom? Therefore, Ricko did not blame anyone for what Ricko was living for."
Ricko's words made my mother proud. Even though Ricko is still a teenager, his way of thinking is very mature. All that is inseparable from the upbringing of his mother, Soraya.
Soraya further tightened her embrace on the child. He really felt very proud to have such an adult-minded child.
Meanwhile, Sandy and her mother have begun to pressure Stella into helping to separate Ricky from Rena. From sweet words and promises to threats given to Stella.
"Mom and son are the same! To deny any means to get a wish. How disgusting!" stella said in her heart.
"But if I don't follow their will, it's certain that I'll be crushed in their hands."
"If you don't want to, then you'll know for yourself what the consequences are, right?" threaten Sandy chimed in on the mother's words.
Sandy and Lady Zoya smile as soon as Stella agrees to help separate Ricky and Rena. In exchange for the medical and educational expenses of Stella's sister. Stella's sister has leukemia, so it costs a lot.
Stella's work as an administrative staff at one of the Kurnia Group subsidiaries, is expected to attract Ricky's attention. Ricky is easily pityed, making his weakness.
The four-month anniversary of Rena's pregnancy went well. Rena has begun to live her days, participating in helping the joy of preparing the Thanksgiving event.
"Rena, you just sit down! Don't follow along, you'll be exhausted! Pity the Utun, Ren," said Susan forbid Rena who took part in holding the carpet for the event in one hour.
"Yes, my God San! Just a cake gini can't do it?" rena protests. "I'm healthy, Susan!"
"I'm gonna have to piss off your man, Ren!"
"Not going to, just a light job kek gini kok angry, what time be a person," kekeh Rena.
"It's up to you then, the important thing is not to be tired!" Susan finally gave up facing the boarding lady.
Susan went to the back to pick up the food that would be served for later events. It also appears that other boarding children lift parcels that will be distributed to orphans and other invited guests.
"Ren, you change your clothes! And pretty dandan. In a moment the invited guests come, you know," said Lola told Rena to immediately change clothes and prepare to welcome the invited guests.
Ricky himself was looking for rice at the request of his wife. Rice with a sprinkling of rice anchovies on it. Ricky had to travel around town to get his wife's request. Before the event started, he had already arrived and could breathe a sigh of relief.
"Ricky, where are your parents?" ask Aunt Soraya when she does not seem to him.
"Mama and papa are still on their way, Auntie," Ricky replied.
Mr. Kurniawan came home after news of Rena's father's death. He deliberately returned to Jogja waiting for the four-monthly event to be held.
